Everywhere I've worked in the last 10+ years has paid maternity leave and most now have paid paternity leave. They offered him unpaid leave.

In 2016 it was used to target these specific types of people with outrage. Get them riled up against their opponents and make them more likely to vote for your candidate or issues and more likely to spread your propaganda for you. AFAIK you

I've never understood this logic. Very few subs limit posts by karma and those that do certainly don't require the insane amounts of karma that these bots are farming. I know I don't go back through someone's post histor

I'm struggling with a mixture of sadness and desire to build my own shop. The answer was obvious for Grant but how does a normal person decide to go all out and build something like that versus just trying to find space in the garage f

Not only that but when they were using Macbooks they were apparently _buying two_ and keeping them in sync? I get some people can't be without a laptop for long periods of time but that seems absurd to me. Keep a backup disk. They even

I know you weren't saying this at all but that first sentence is dangerously close to "we've reached a permanently high plateau". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irving_Fisher

It's true that a homeowner who pays a higher principal and a lower rate isn't really at a disadvantage if they stay in the home for 30 years (with a 30 year loan). But if rates go up a bit as soon as they need to sell they're

But if that were the case I'd expect to see the employment numbers dramatically shift in states that removed their unemployment assistance earlier than others, which I don't think we've seen any evidence of yet.

Tunnels of Doom was probably my first exposure to Dungeons & Dragons. I woulda played that every day if it didn't require loading from audio tape via a cassette player (a process that was very prone to errors).

IIRC they had announced they weren't going to IPO in 2020 several months prior to that change. So I wouldn't assume they just didn't realize the work involved until October. Maybe they post-poned the IPO earlier in the year b

I think most large companies have written similar tools to deal with various use cases. As part of a security team I often have the need to query for what instance has been assigned what IP, what team owns what AWS account, which security g

It does sound like one of those "because it's cool" features rather than "because anyone should ever actually use this".

.net and .org were the original .xyz. Back in the late 90s and early 2000s they were seen as less reputable for businesses. I think they still carry some of that tarnish.

I wonder how well these new TLDs work for custom email if you use them with Google Workspaces / Google Apps for Domains or another reputable email hosting service. I've been using a custom domain (though a .net) for decades now an

It went both ways too. When Amazon got pissed at Apple they blocked Apple TVs from being sold on Amazon.

Is there anything in the ruling that prevents Apple from requiring all prices be the same or preventing companies from providing extra "value" if their payment processor is utilized?

IMHO this would be an easier problem to address with a voluntary body that coordinates among ISPs or (cringe) a govt. agency. I worked for a popular service that regularly received DDoS attacks from botnets. We had logs with the IPs of tens

If what's being disclosed is of the nature of the Pearson hack (theft of student records) then great. But there are probably thousands of hacks that don't result in the disclosure of PII or other confidential information. I can un

That's good. It's unfortunate that the best signal most companies can use for whether their bounty amounts are sufficient is report volume and quality rather than a pro-active "here's what others are paying" or impa

I assume you didn't tell Apple that you were negotiating with other buyers? I think most bug bounty programs will cut off communications at that point. I've managed several programs for some very large companies and haggling over

This is one of those rare situations where I can see both sides and I'm thankful I don't have to make the decisions Elastic.co did. Most open source companies don't have to worry too much about competitors grabbing their code

I don't think you'd find many people who'd argue with that. But Etsy's requirements are far different from a lot of DoD systems.

It really sounds to me like someone is just spidering his site each night using curl and it's causing a cache refresh. He doesn't go into detail about the "547 hosts" to explain if they're all fetching the same cont
